You Think You've Got It, Don'tcha?

Seeing her beneath me.. It was great. She tried squirming around to get away, but I don't know if it was because she was uncomfortable, or if she was reaching her peak. From all the moaning she's doing, it had to be option number two. Before she could, i pulled my fingers out and ran them over her stomach, then someone bursted through the door. I looked back and Ryden jumped, quickly pulling her blanket over her.

"Ahh. Shit, man I'm sorry." Jimmy said, shielding his eyes. "Fuck." He mumbled, then slowly closed the door.

"Jim, wait up." I said after he closed the door. I kissed Ryden's cheek and she smiled widely. "We'll continue this later." I mumbled into her ear. She nodded and kissed my nose.

"Go be with your friends. I have to apply for college today." She said, squeezing my shoulder.

"I forgot you were trying to go to college..." I said. What am I going to do with you not around during the day anymore?"

"You'll figure something out." She replied. "You can work on band things. Like trying to find a bassist."

She was right. We still needed a bassist. And I knew the one perfect for the job.

*Jimmy's POV*

After having to possibly even bleach my eyeballs, I walked downstairs. I could have spent the rest of my life without seeing that. I shook my head to myself and reached the kitchen, sitting down in my seat by Brian.

"What was going on up there?" Matt asked. I shrugged.

"Fun time." I replied quickly, taking a sip of coffee from Ryden's mug. The thing even had her name on it. Written in that comic sans font. Ridiculous.

"What do you mean, 'fun time?'" Matt asked again, looking suspicious. I gulped.

"Dude he was... I don't even know man. It wasn't appropriate." I said. I looked over to both Matt and Brian. Brian rubbed the bridge of his nose, and Matt fumed.

"Shoulda known." Matt said.

"Don't worry about it. You have Val to worry about. Not Ryden." Brian said. That only made Matt more upset, and I just looked down into my refection in the coffee in Ryden's mug.

More drama. Just what I need, I thought. It was getting hectic. Matt and Brian were arguing to the point of raising their voices and I finally stood up.

"ENOUGH!!" I yelled. I rubbed the bridge of my nose, just as Brian had. "I don't know what the deal is with you guys and Ryden but you better figure that shit out. I didn't come back to join a band to listen to you guys and your endless complaining and moaning about," I looked over to Matt, emphasizing it. "Someone you can't have."

It looked like it hit him pretty hard. I didn't care. "You guys are fucking adults. Act like it or I'm gone."

"Yeah. Okay." Brian said, punching Matt. Matt yelled out and held his shoulder.

"That isn't a threat either. It's a freaking promise. You need to grow up, Matt. Ryden is with Zack. You had your chance and you blew it."

"How do you even know all of this stuff?" Matt protested.

"I've been talking to Brian about the deal between you and her. It ain't right."

He looked over at Brian and stared daggers at him. I felt relieved after saying all that.

"Sorry man. He asked, I told."

"I'm going to go talk to Ryden about this shit." Matt said, then got up. He walked upstairs and disappeared. After Brian looked at me, I shrugged.

*Matt's POV*

I huffed as I walked up the stairs to Ryden's room. As I came to the top of the case, Zack walked out of her room and down to the other side of the hall to his own. I made sure he closed his door before making another move and I walked to her room, opening the door quietly. She was bundled up in her blankets with her phone, talking to someone. I sat on the foot of her bed and she jumped higher than ever.

"Yeah, a trip around campus would be great." She said, nodding to the phone. I waited patiently and she kept nodding. "Yeah. Sounds good. Thanks." She said again, then hung up, looking at me. "What do you want?" She asked. "I have things to do."

"I need to talk to you."

"About?" She raised an eyebrow.

"You know what about. Us." I said.

"There is no 'us'." She said, then turned over. I turned her back to me and pinned her shoulders down, forcing her to look up at me. She squirmed around and I only tightened my grip until she stayed still.

"There was an us. I want that back. Our relationship went from love to hate in such a small amount of time."

"Because you decided to become the biggest dick on the planet. That's why I never talked to you until now. Because that's all you do. Hurt people. Just like you hurt Val. I'm not stupid. I heard about it; and now she's in the hospital." She admitted. I was taken back, and I loosened my grip a little.

"I look into your eyes and hate is the only thing I see now." I said. "The way you look at me has changed. I used to see love in your eyes every time you looked at me. It's all gone now."

"Because I'm with Zack and you need to fucking get over it. Get off me." She said. I shook my head and leaned down, resting my forehead on her own. She turned her face away and I took my hand, grabbing her chin with my middle finger and thumb, then forced her to look at me. She whimpered slightly.

"I'm not getting over it." I said coldly. "You're mine, god damn it! Mine!"

At this point she was in tears. I ran my thumb over her cheek and she sniffled. "I'll never be yours." She said. I smirked. If there was anything I liked, it was seeing her standing up to me.

"Of course you will. It's either me," I said, pushing her down deeper into the bed, "Or it's Zack. Take your pick."

"I choose Zack." She said. "Now get off of me before I scream."

"Scream. I dare you." I said. "I'm not below hitting a woman." She whimpered again, closing her eyes and turning her head. "Now. Choose me." I urged. I needed her. Who the fuck cared about Val. She could run off with her friend from college that she liked for all I care. I stared at Ryden longer, jerking her head to face me. She screamed out, and I reared my hand back, slapping her across the face, then placed my hand over her mouth. She pushed my hand away and I looked down at her.

"O-Okay." She said. I-I pick you... Just don't hurt me anymore..." She squeaked, holding her hand to the side of her face that I slapped. I grinned.

"Good girl. Now go tell Zack that it's over. Now."

Notes

Okay, so no smut as promised, but more drama. Everything is coming together nicely in my opinion. Tell me how it is, rate, subscribe, comment? I needs feedback, people. Don't worry. Everything will still be fine with Zack and Ryden. I promise.
